Mr Muddy 141 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 ‘Checkatrade’,’ ratedpeople’, ‘find a pest controller/mole catcher/wasp sprayer’, etc, etc. Do any of you use these type of sites? Which ones are any good? Quote Link to post

Froudy 40 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 I wouldn't pay for the above due to getting lost with 100s of other pest controller's and at the end of the day your lining middle men's pockets. as above I think money is better spent on a good website. Atb Quote Link to post

Tiercel 6,986 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 A lot of people still use yellow pages or yell.com. The best way to get seen on there as most people search by area is to have the right name, Aaron pest control would be first in the listings at any time you can then link your yell page to your website. Other than that you can pay google for keyword prominence. That would get you more traffic to the site the rest is then up to you. TC Quote Link to post
shropshire mole 190 Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Word of mouth is a slower but much more reliable source of revenue. Do a good job, get recommended, then get other work as a result. Ads on notice boards can help (a little) and get your name about. Pay for websites, other than Yell, not for me. Build up slowly, I think is key 1 Quote Link to post
